Pro Vaccine/Booster Story
I know that many women are fearful or on the fence about getting the covid vaccine or booster while pregnant. I just wanted to share my story. I got both my doses of Pfizer back in March before I started ttc. I got my booster at 28 weeks and am so thankful I did. Over the holiday one of my extended family members (had J&J in May 2021 and no booster) got covid (omicron, confirmed by a hospital) and he exposed me along with my husband, my mom, and our two small children who are too young to vaccinate yet (3yo, 1yo). My spouse and mom and I all boosted stayed negative throughout our extended exposure but my unvaccinated kids got sick and tested positive and the family member who was not boosted and got it ended up in the hospital for a week and easily might not have survived according to the doctors at the hospital. Hubby and I cared for our positive/sick kids 24/7 on top of our original exposure to the family member and we have tested negative the whole time (multiple pcr tests throughout) and my mom who is boosted also tested negative throughout. I absolutely credit being boosted to me, my hubby, and my mom not getting covid. Please please for the sake of your families and your soon to be born babies consider getting the vaccine or booster if you haven’t already.
